...and you're not allowed to use the drive control. We're talking tightening up high gain amps of course.

I'm not really a pedal guy but for me it's the Plumes or Dirty Tree. What's your desert island boost?
 
Hands down the dirty tree…. And it also doesn’t get near the credit for how versatile it actually is as well! It’s amazing on slightly broken up tones as a gentle input shaper as well. It can do anything I want it to do, simply the best input shaper/boost pedal I’ve ever used, and the most versatile.
 
Depends on the amp. But, I think many would choose a tried and true SD-1 for a Marshall, including myself. Although I much prefer the MXR Custom Badass OD to it, which I would be comfortable with as my only OD.

However, as stated above, my tastes change, and they're very amp dependent. Right now, my Fortin TS-9 is in heavy rotation.
 
SInce its technically a 2 in 1, I'm going to cheat and say the new KMA Pylon I just got. The boost function on it is very serviceable and and the low end cut knob has the ability to cut even a bit more what the DT achieves.
 
As far as versatility, the KSR Eros is great.

As far as best sounding? Probably the Rimrock Mythical or the LPD Saguaro.
 
PLX Bion Boost. Just make sure it's first in the signal chain. Does not like a bufferd pedal in front of it. Works great with every amp I used it with.
 
Airis Savage Drive, Lovepedal Eternity or Mythos Mjolner, hard to choose just one.
